David, who lived on the streets himself for a time, wanted to give homeless musicians the opportunity to write, develop and sell their own music - as well as share their experiences.

The pair have been working with musicians at Turning Tide's community hub St Clare’s for the last year.

A spokesman from Turning Tides said: "The clients have found the sessions cathartic and have thrown themselves into the opportunity to learn how to put across their feelings and tell their story through writing their own songs."

Chris’ song is Host Recordings first release.

David said: "‘Writing songs with Chris and watching him develop as a singer and songwriter has been an awe inspiring and life-affirming experience.

"He has a story to tell, he is telling it through music and we aim to make sure that he is heard."

Host Recordings will be releasing on average one song a month going forward.

Chris' song will be available from Saturday, February 16, on Bandcamp, Spotify and itunes.
